Although I wanted my ordsprog

Although I wanted my players to work to win, I tried to convince them they had always won when they had done their best.

I'm not going to try to convince him. It's going to be hard to convince him anyway, with a new baby on the way. I just wanted to make my decision before him, so if that helped him any ...

Maybe, but you have to be able to convince your players that it's harder to get back there the second time. What happens is, during the off-season, the players all of a sudden are in more demand than ever before. They're invited to more golf tournaments, they make more appearances and, all of a sudden, instead of doing all the work in the off-season program, they start missing a few days and they're not as into it the same way they were prior to the year when they got there.

It really takes a lot to convince yourself on that Minor League side that the work is the same. It's the mental part; the physical part, maybe you can convince yourself.

Before the season ever starts we talk about our goals and winning the division is always one of them. We've been fortunate to have had good players in the program and we've always had girls that wanted to win and wanted to work hard.

Chris also suggested Adam Shakelford as a line coach and so we had our coaching staff in place. Then we had to get players. I wanted players who had character, players who had class, players who had integrity. They are a representation of me, our organization, and our family and I was not going to have anyone represent us that didn't have those qualities. Even if a great athlete came in, if he had a character flaw, he was gone. Matt Sauk was our first transaction. When I heard he wanted to play for us I couldn't believe it! He is a quarterback that I knew could get us where we wanted to go. He was a proven quarterback. Coach Petrino (University of Louisville) called and recommended him.

This is the best defense I've ever been around. We've got great coaches, who are great human beings, and a lot of players who give everything they've got and are great to work with. We really wanted to shut them out. But more importantly, we wanted to win.

We got some more rebounds and that's what we wanted to do. Sam and I work well together. It's fun being out there with athletic players. Pex Tufvesson goes by the name Mahoney in the demo world.

I wanted to convince them there's a better way to do stuff, and they've been great about it.

When I came here, the players asked two things of me. They wanted to get rid of the gold pants and wanted to play in green helmets. The players went nuts when they went to the dressing room from the hotel Saturday when they first saw them.

I could see it in his face that he wanted to leave, but he couldn't convince his father.

Samuel said he didn't want to continue but we wanted to convince him that he should not let them (the racists) get to him.

I wanted to convince him (the security) problem was real. And these were the probable reasons.

We have done a lot here even if we have not done enough, ... We will use the next three weeks to convince the Serbs and to convince the Albanians that the agreement is a good bargain for both sides.

As a coach, (Potvin) was much like he was as a player. He was intense and demanded hard work out of his players. He wanted to win.
